How to Be a Girl

My daughter and I are stunned and sad, but we are doing OK.
Here is something for you. Some words from me, with some music from my amazing daughter.
What happens when supporting your child means leaving your home?

...Imagine living in a place where your own child has been outlawed. This is happening, right now, all over the United States.
In this episode, you’ll meet my new friends, a courageous and close-knit family who suddenly found themselves unwelcome in the place they had always called home.

Of course I knew this was going to happen eventually. But that didn't make it any easier when it did.
After a pretty lengthy hiatus, we're back! The first episode of the 2018 season comes out next week. Here's a little taste of what's to come.
This mini-episode contains: One VERY excited little girl awaiting Santa, news of the big changes coming to our lives, my plans for the future of this podcast, and... a miracle!
